NBA 2023-2024 betting

Same here, I thought that -7.5 is going to be covered by the Bucks because of Celtics missing their best players. And I thought that the winning streak is going to be end tonight.

The Bucks started very strong in the fourth, from down 95-90, then tie the score and even take the lead. But Celtics keeps fighting back and when you thought that the game is already done with the Bucks leading 3, Sam Hauser nail that three in the middle, forcing OT. Not a good night for some of us.

Many got baited with the fact that the Celtics are playing with the Bucks without their core players like Brown, Tatum, and Smart including me. I also thought that -7.5 will be easily covered by the Bucks, but I was wrong. The good thing though that I made with that game is that I put my bet on the Bucks in winning the game when they are still down and luckily, I won on that bet so my loss with my spread just came back because of that win.

Overall, I'm very impressed with how the Celtics are playing right now. Take note that they are up against a complete and top team in Bucks and they lost by only 6 points, and it also went to overtime. Derrick White's impressive performance has been taken out by Jrue Holiday's 40 points, and that three that he made at the final seconds of the game sealed the deal and got the victory.
Here are the results of my bets.
Toronto Raptors - Orlando Magic = Orlando Magic @ 3.40
- Lost. I thought that the Magic can steal one on the road. They manage to take the lead, but loss by double digits.
Milwaukee Bucks - Boston Celtics = Milwaukee Bucks (-7.5) @1.61
- Lost with this bet, but I put a bet during the game with the Bucks winning the game and I won so overall, I won with this game.
Phoenix Suns - Sacramento Kings = Phoenix Suns @ 1.77
- Won. I expect them to beat the Kings after how they are playing in their recent games and that is without Bridges. They have players that stepped up offensively and defensively.
Portland Trail Blazers - Washington Wizards = Washington Wizards @ 1.94
- Won. With Kuz, KP and Beal playing, I thought that they can steal one on the road and they are playing good on the road as well so I put my bet on them, and I won.

I was able to bet on these games, won the Raptors game while losing on the Bucks game. Didn't expect that Celtics will make it a very close game, they almost upset the home team but good thing the game went over, in the OT, it was still the Celtics who had an early lead, but the Bucks did come back to complete a win.

About the Raptors game, on paper, the Magic looks great because they have won their past games, but the actual, Raptors took control of the game in the 2nd half, won, and cover the spread too.

That was a hard decision to bet on the Raptors, their last game, they only won 1 point against the Piston, and then they played the Magic who are a better team than the Pistons, so the expectation is really on the Magic to at least cover the handicap. But yeah, it looks easy on paper but in reality the Raptors did well to cover the spread.

Well, that was a breathtaking game and you cannot honestly watch that kind of game every day where most of the bench players from the Celtics are playing but still almost defeated the home team which got their superstars playing with them. Giannis and Holiday need to step-up their game further because that game was almost close.

I see that we have lots of games again tomorrow, have you guys made yours? Well, here my early picks.

Indiana Pacers -2.5
Miami Heat -1
Boston Celtics -8

Holiday played very well in that game, he scored 40 points, it was probably his biggest output this season.
Maybe they are not so dominant because they miss the service of Middleton who I think was injured, or resting.

Indiana Pacers -2.5
Miami Heat -1
Boston Celtics -8

If there's a team that I would love to win, it should be the Pacers since they are in a losing streak and have only won 1 of their last 10 games.

If there's a team that I would love to win, it should be the Pacers since they are in a losing streak and have only won 1 of their last 10 games.

Most probably, Khris Middleton was just resting because he wasn't on the injury list if I'm not mistaken. But if ever he did play on that game, I'm quite certain that the handicap will be covered and for Jrue Holiday, yes, it is his season high where he tied his career high that was made last season against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Now, the Milwaukee Bucks is on a hot 11 win streak and their next game will be against the Chicago Bulls. We will see if they can able to defeat the home team at the United Center.

@Freedomgo, let me tail you with that Pacers bet as I believe that a -2.5 is not that hard for them to cover, hopefully.

[YuginKadoya]

Here are my picks for tomorrow's games

Indiana Pacers VS Chicago Bulls

The stake odds for this game are 1.73 for the Pacers and 2.16 for the Bulls, right now Daniel Theis and Myles Turner are questionable if they can play for the Pacers, While DeMar DeRozan, Derrick Jones Jr., Javonte Green, and Lonzo Ball can not play, Goran Dragic and Alex Caruso are questionable if they can play for the Bulls, for this game the Bulls has so many injuries and those are the main players for the Bulls, so my pick will be the Indiana Pacers,

Atlanta Hawks VS New York Knicks

The stake odds for this game are 1.66 for the Hawks and 2.28 for the Knicks, Right now De'Andre Hunter, and John Collins are questionable if they can play for the Hawks while Mitchell Robinson can not play for the Knicks for this game, even though De'Andre Hunter and John Collins are questionable it doesn't matter, for me my pick will be the Atlanta Hawks,

Philadelphia 76ers VS Cleveland Cavaliers

The stake odds for this game are 1.79 for the 76ers and 2.08 for the Cavaliers, right now Furkan Korkmaz, can not play because of injury, Joel Embiid, and P.J. Tucker are questionable if they can play, for the 76ers, while the Cavaliers don't have any injuries right now, for me I think Joel Embiid and PJ Tucker even though they can play for this game they will not be in their 100% form so my pick will be the Cleveland Cavaliers,

Los Angeles Lakers VS New Orleans Pelicans

The stake odds for this game are 1.59 for the Lakers and 2.42 for the Pelicans, for this game LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Scotty Pippen Jr. are questionable if they can not play against the Pelicans, while Dyson Daniels, Zion Williamson, and E.J. Liddell can not play CJ McCollum is questionable if he can play for the Pelican, for me because of the new players for the Lakers and the Pelicans still doesn't have Zion on their team, my pick will be the Lakers,

10 games today. Wow. No super early games. Thank God. 

@Freedomgo, let me tail you with that Pacers bet as I believe that a -2.5 is not that hard for them to cover, hopefully.

Let me second the motion. Going for the Indiana Pacers here @-3.5. I am so done with the Chicago Bulls, I have never felt a win at all the bets I made for them. Time to let go.

Charlotte Hornets - San Antonio Spurs - Charlotte Hornets (-4.5) Hornets are not a bad team but the Spurs have not been winning games lately. 13th losing streak and I doubt it can be stopped. Coach Pop must be furious about what is happening. He needs better players on his team.

Memphis Grizzlies - Utah Jazz - Memphis Grizzlies (-7.5) Sorry Jazz, but Memphis Grizzlies are hot for revenge after losing against the Celtics. They will force this one and try to get farther away from the number 3 Sacramento Kings.

Boston Celtics - Detroit Pistons - Boston Celtics (-5.5) Their bench and roleplayers already proved they are still good even without Tatum, Brown, and Smart, so I bet they can handle the Pistons too.

Philadelphia 76ers - Cleveland Cavaliers - Cleveland Cavaliers ML This will be a close one, there's no assurance the Cavs will win this but I want to take the risk.

Good luck everyone.

Here are the results of my bets.
Toronto Raptors - Orlando Magic = Orlando Magic @ 3.40
- Lost. I thought that the Magic can steal one on the road. They manage to take the lead, but loss by double digits.
Milwaukee Bucks - Boston Celtics = Milwaukee Bucks (-7.5) @1.61
- Lost with this bet, but I put a bet during the game with the Bucks winning the game and I won so overall, I won with this game.

But yeah, it looks easy on paper but in reality the Raptors did well to cover the spread.

Really tough to predict, with how Magic rally back in the 2nd quarter it seems that it can be a good pick an easy cover for the handicap
but coming 2nd half Raptors came back stronger and established good lead.

Unable to bounce back, Magic lose the game with double digits and most of those who trusted them
to cover the handicap lose the bets, nothing but to move forward and try to pick which games will
be the best to bet with to bounce/recover.

[MK-74]

My picks for tonight.

Phoenix Suns (-2.5) vs Sakramento Kings = Phoenix Suns Win 1,85 Odds.

Portland Trail Blazers vs Washington Wizards = Portland Trail Blazers Win 1,77 Odds.

Good luck guys.

I think good for me 1/2, better than my last picks. Of course I will try to be better tonight.
There are good games, I will choose 3-4 games and share them as soon as possible.

[Baofeng]

I've got like $27 dollars worth of betting that I have to make in order to fully cash out my current balance at one of my online casino accounts, so I'm trying to pick between one of these games and I think you make some good points above, so I'll be choosing one of your picks ( I hope you know your stuff lol).  I was thinking of betting on the Suns, but the information you listed above helps with that decision now ( going with the Kings too).  Thx and good luck to us.

Not my day, sorry.

Yeah, it was a disaster for me as well, hehehe, single and parlay bets.

But let's continue with our bets, that is just part of the game for us.

Celtics vs Detroit - Smart and Tatum are scheduled to make a return in this game, so I expect at least the Celtics winning by a double digit margin.
Hawks vs Knicks - I love the Knicks but it's time for the Hawks to win at home, -2.5 @1.82.

[MK-74]

My picks for tonight.

Los Angeles Lakers (-4.5) vs New Orleans Pelicans = Los Angeles Lakers Win 1,82 Odds.

Brooklyn Nets vs Miami Heat = Miami Heat Win 1,97 Odds.

Indiana Pacers vs Chicago Bulls = Indiana Pacers Win 1,72 Odds.

Good luck guys.

[rdbase]

So with these trades done during the entire Lebron point breaking segment, Kyrie Irving going to the Mavericks got put aside.

I only seen somebody ask if he was getting game time on the court with Luka Doncic or not the night he started earlier last week.

They are playing against Denver Nuggets tonight so expect them to beat them with the over on points.
As Jokic has been on an unstoppable streak last I watched one of their games last week.

[Dave1]

Hornets -4.5 live betting at 1.95, against the San Antonio Spurs. It's early in the first quarter but the Spurs took a slight lead.

Gonna be interesting defending their homecourt and I think they can do it against the visiting Spurs. Hayward and Ball will have to shoulder most of the scoring and I think the duo can make it.

Didn't expect that Celtics will make it a very close game, they almost upset the home team but good thing the game went over, in the OT, it was still the Celtics who had an early lead, but the Bucks did come back to complete a win.

As a bettor, who would've expect that the Celtics will play on that way.

That only shows that they are the team to watch out with. They have all the tools offensively and at the same time, they have players who are for me I can call the "Giannis Stoppers" who can stop and defend him inside the paint. Of course if he's running on fastbreak, expect that no one can stop him, but in the paint, the Celtics have the players that can defend him. Grant Williams is the one that I always see that can stop him.
Anyway, here are my bets for this tonight's game.

Atlanta Hawks - New York Knicks = New York Knicks @ 2.38
Philadelphia 76ers - Cleveland Cavaliers = Philadelphia 76ers @ 1.92
Brooklyn Nets - Miami Heat = Brooklyn Nets @ 1.81
Los Angeles Lakers - New Orleans Pelicans = New Orleans Pelicans @2.70

Good luck to all of us.

I put a few satoshis down on the Chicago Bulls defeating the Indy Pacers, who were favored to win the game at -2.5 points.  The Bulls have dropped like 4 or 5 straight, so it's nice to see them play really well, at least so far tonight especially without Demar DeRozan playing in this game. 

Nice seeing contributions from Coby White and Ayo Dosunmo, they've really stepped up tonight in the absence of DeRozan.

Man, that's a loss again. Most of us took the bet for Indiana Pacers and it hit, even my -3.5. The Bulls had that 24-point lead in the first quarter and I even thought it was going to be a blowout game but the Pacers pushed hard to make the game close until they got the lead in the last minutes of the game.

Let me second the motion. Going for the Indiana Pacers here @-3.5. I am so done with the Chicago Bulls, I have never felt a win at all the bets I made for them. Time to let go.

Win! I was praying Zach LaVine will miss that one free throw and it was answered.  Thank you for the tip @freedomgo

Charlotte Hornets - San Antonio Spurs - Charlotte Hornets (-4.5) - Win.
Memphis Grizzlies - Utah Jazz - Memphis Grizzlies (-7.5) - Loss. Didn't cover, I need 2 more points.
Boston Celtics - Detroit Pistons - Boston Celtics (-5.5) - Win
Philadelphia 76ers - Cleveland Cavaliers - Cleveland Cavaliers ML - Loss. They tried to get close after a 27-point lead early in the game. They made an 18-3 run but it was not enough.

3/5 Not bad.
Betting for the New Orleans Pelicans +11.5. Caught in the first quarter. They are still down by 10.

[MK-74]

My picks for tonight.

Los Angeles Lakers (-4.5) vs New Orleans Pelicans = Los Angeles Lakers Win 1,82 Odds.

Brooklyn Nets vs Miami Heat = Miami Heat Win 1,97 Odds.

Good luck guys.

I was expecting a surprise from Miami Heat but it didn't happen. It's no problem, my other bets won 2/3

[YuginKadoya]

Here are the results of my picks for today's game,

Indiana Pacers VS Chicago Bulls SCORE 117 - 113 - WIN

The Chicago Bulls have a great start in the 1st half but the Indiana Pacers have made a great turn of events in the 2nd half, which led them to win this close game, Myles Turner got 17 points, Aaron Nesmith got 21 and Buddy Hield got 27 points, winning the game,

Atlanta Hawks VS New York Knicks SCORE 101 - 122 - LOST

I was so frustrated when the Hawks lost the game well just because I have not bet for them that I have lost, actually, the Knicks from start to finish is not slowing down while the Hawks have shown how fragile they are, Jalen Brunson was very slick in this game, RJ Barett got 17 points Julius Randle has a double-double of 11 rebounds and 25 points and Jalen Brunson got 28 points winning the game against the Hawks,

Philadelphia 76ers VS Cleveland Cavaliers SCORE 118 - 112 - LOST

A close game indeed the 76ers have a great lead at the start of the game but the Cavaliers have shown momentum in getting the lead chip little by little, but they haven't made a progress in getting the lead themselves, De'Anthony Melton got 17 points James Harden has a double-double of 12 assists and 19 points, and Joel Embiid has a double-double of 14 rebounds and 29 points winning the game against the Cavaliers,

Los Angeles Lakers VS New Orleans Pelicans SCORE 120 - 102 - WIN

Surely those 3 new recruits for the Lakers have done them pretty much good, and have done justice to the Lakers because, with their match with the Pelicans, they are now doing so much with some of their players, pretty much D'Angelo Russell is a great addition to the team, well both D'Angelo Russell and Lebron James got 21 points and Anthony Davis has a double-double of 10 rebounds and 28 points winning against the Pelicans,

These 3 games tonight is games where somebody lead by a huge margin, but 2 of those teams got the victory like the Philly and the New York Knicks. I don't know what can I say about the Bulls since they blew out their huge lead in the first half. I mean I didn't expect that the Pacers will make a comeback "again", and I said again because they've been done it 3 times this season.
Anyway, here are the results for my bets.

Atlanta Hawks - New York Knicks = New York Knicks @ 2.38
- WIN. I guess I just felt that they will one on the road, so I put my bet on them. Got the momentum during the first quarter with that huge double digit lead, and they didn't look back anymore. It's good to see that they have a good supporting center in Hartenstein that is very active in the paint.

Philadelphia 76ers - Cleveland Cavaliers = Philadelphia 76ers @ 1.92
- WIN. I expected that the Philly will continue their winning streak, and maybe the fact that they are playing on their home is the reason why I put my bet on them. Cavaliers are the best defensive team right now in the NBA, but they just can't stop the Sixers and scored 63 points against 38 for them. I thought for a second that they will make a comeback as well like what the Pacers did.

Brooklyn Nets - Miami Heat = Brooklyn Nets @ 1.81
- WIN. Brooklyn Bridges is doing it at Brooklyn. The Nets have now a new crowd favorite, and he's enjoying playing there. A new career high 45 points for him, and what's good about him is that, he can be a reliable scorer, but at the same time, he's an elite defender, and he isn't injury prone as well that's why he's being called "Iron Man". Cam Thomas with 19 points and Cam Johnson with 18. Good win for them on their home.

Los Angeles Lakers - New Orleans Pelicans = New Orleans Pelicans @2.70
- LOST. I lost on this one and I thought I will go 4/4 today. It seems like what @YuginKadoya said was true that their new players are performing better for the team. They also have a deeper depth right now compare to what it was before the trade deadline. Russel, AD and Lebron combined for 70 points in this win. Good win for them as well.

I also put a bet Denver Nuggets - Dallas Mavericks Total (Incl. Overtime) = Over 214.5 @ 1.75 during the halftime of the game, and I won so 4/5 today .
